Nerd for the Night…and What’s Good for DoubleClick is good for ValueClick

Put some faces to the name tonight at Om’s party. Om was a good host and announced the launch of Found Read .

I spoke with Kevin Rose Digg . My wife thinks he’s cute AND jewish.

I introduced myelf to Mike Arrington , who suprisingly knew me and Wallstrip . He called me a ‘dick’ in front of my wife. Awesome. I said he only remembers my negative posts and lately I have been viewing his blog in a different light. He stuck with ‘dick’.

Turns out he is having a really bad day. This will get expensive for him. The lawyer’s letter is a classic and always less stressful when your name is not at the end of it.

After the close, Google finally buys Doubleclick. I like Valleywag’s take the best , mainly because I agree. None of the nerds are talking about ValueClick though which is all I care about because I own the stock. I see it up 7 percent after hours on Yahoo Finance so I am bullish on the merger .

Back in November, I blogged and bought the stock . Microsoft may have to buy them now that they lost Doubleclick.
